It’s all in the sizer........

Nice shooting Walter. That would be a great 50-75 yard deer gun.

I was wondering how long it would take everyone else to catch up...LOL
I forget we have already half way discussed most of this stuff in a PM before it hits the open board.

The camera was not running but I shot a 10 shot group at 100 yards that was just under three inches. All groups were shot with the scope set at 4x

Sept. 10, 2021 Steve left us. You are missed.
Is the difficulty cycling the action because of the bullet being used? Looks like a good load, good video.

looked like a short stroke on the bench then a half ohoh and a re-stroke to finish what was started.

I really don’t know guys. I’m gun shy now after just fixing my .44 Marlin. Another carrier issue??? I don’t know. I hope not. I need to just shoot the thing from a standing position and see what happens I guess.

Make a dummy round and cycle it slowly. Is the nose hitting the end of the receiver? That is a simple fix as long as you have a file.
